Solar Flare Forecasting Using Hybrid Neural Networks by Dan Xu, Pengchao Sun, Song Feng, Bo Liang, Wei Dai

“…Through the model superiority discussion, the model obtained high average TSS values, with the ≥C and ≥M models achieving TSS scores of 0.798 ± 0.032 and 0.850 ± 0.074, respectively, suggesting that our models have good forecasting performance. We speculate that some key features automatically extracted by our model may not have been previously identified, and these features could provide important clues for studying the mechanisms of flares.…”
